I'd recommend it and have been back twice, they were very flexible fitting me in on a busy Saturday when I was going for an interview. My wife like my haircut - she said I looked cool, like a cross between Blake Fielder-Civil and a moor hen. The staff are really friendly GO! Next time I go I am going to ask them to give me a price to open on a Sunday and help me shave a donkey on a number 1, so I can try and make some money renting the donkey out for Hare Krishna picnics during the summer.

And as you may be aware from my former Mufti review, I badgered a friend of mine into visiting them. I booked myself an appointment for Saturday with very high expectations, and they were met gallantly. Mufti is cool, there's no denying it. It's in the Northern Quarter for starters, it's run by guys, the music is unbelievably mellow and lovely and it's simple, clean and relaxing. They had me at the film magazines by the sofa. You might not be able to pick a hairdo from them but you can read through which films should have been TV shows. Agreed, journalists! Empire Records should SO have been a series, as should Watchmen. Ahem, where was I. Not that I'm leaving Salvation (http://www.yelp.co.uk/biz/salvation-hair-ltd-salford#hrid:iRY12h4CSS4gugZ1e-S2Pg), it just feels a little weird to walk in there without Alex, but I was more than intrigued to see what Mufti could do with my stupid hair type. Over the years I've tried and failed to make it more manageable, the only thing that really worked for me was a pixie cut. Now I've ill-advisedly grown it long again and its natural wave and supposed 'thinness but lots of it' have got the better of me. Hair, meet Karl, a genius, a lovely guy who washed my hair himself without getting some floor sweeper to do it and asked me questions about my hair routine throughout. I think he could tell from the clobber that I'm something of a vintage junkie, and my resulting style reflected that. A snip, a tweak, some conversations about Alex (he knew him very vaguely), advice on hair products and a confirmation that my hair is indeed thick (take THAT, Headmasters) and that short layers are fooling me into thinking my hair's manageable later, I looked in the mirror and was greeted with a silky head of waves worthy of a 40s movie star. I'm a convert.

I went for the first time here after seeing that they had won some awards and also checking out…read moretheir instagram, which had really nice hair colour works, and I must say I was very impressed. The stylist I had was Lauren and she took the time to do a proper consultation and give recommendations on style and colour. She also did a fantastic job with my highlights and colour, and got rid off all the black roots and brassy yellow on the lengths of my hair. I liked the way she packed the highlights tight and to the very root, so my pink colour came out beautifully. The staff are all very friendly, and the salon is very clean. MT is probably the best salon I have ever been too, as many salons I have been to before just never get my colour right like here. They are very popular though, so it's best book a few weeks in advance.

I've also had issues with their online booking service and deposits As well as them losing my vouchers on their system. At £65 a haircut I expect much better and I won't be returning. Don't believe the hype, my local hairdresser is far superior in techniques on curly hair and much cheaper!

I was nervous looking for a place to find but stumbled upon this salon as I was walking outside my hotel. The people that work there are mostly Cantonese however are able to converse in English and some Mandarin. My stylist was Sheila and she was very nice and gave her opinion about my haircut. Ultimately decided for the spike look. For a wash and cut it was £25. If you're a student you can get a 15% discount. Probably one of the coolest things was she didn't buzz the side of my heads but she used sheers which I thought was very impressive. Anyway if I lived here I would come back here and makes me want to go home and look for a barber that also uses sheers for my sides. I give it 5 stars if you're willing to pay. Cheers

As a person of mixed race my options for hair salons are limited. I have tried the popular high street chain salons before, however I frequently found myself explaining to the person serving me what needs to be done (they just don't know what to do with a mass of soft curly hair)! Equally, I have gone to other Afro Caribbean hair salons which are notorious for their tardiness and poorly managed operations. Kai is different I have yet to wait more than 5 minutes to get started and the service is fabulous! They also cater to all hair types and I would very highly recommend!

I have been relaxing my hair for about 15 years and have tried many different afro carribean salons. I found Kai's to be the best one I have been to both for friendliness and efficiency.

The price for relaxing included a treatment and cut and is very competitive. The whole process only took two hours from start to finish and normally I am in the hairdressers for 3 - 4 hours.

Friendly team and excellent service. Harriet is fast and my gel nails always look fab and last longer than any others I've had in the past. You also get offered a complimentary glass of bubbles which goes down a tear while getting your nails pampered. Gel nails cost £22 with removal of previous set included. I recently had my gels off which is £5 or free with any service, so I opted for a file and polish which cost £8 and lasted literally 10 days before it started to chip. Amazing! You can book online and I would highly recommend Harriet's service for nails. I can't comment on other beauticians as haven't experienced their services.

Conversation with Harriet is never stilted but not too much; she's normal and friendly and down to earth. She doesn't judge me for my low pain threshold and gets the job done quickly and as pain free as possible. It's excellent value for money and a lovely salon too.

I arrived for my appt and was given one of their robes and was offered coffee. Carmen and I discussed my hair and what I wanted. As well as what I usually get done to it. She took her time washing it and making sure it was squeaky clean as well as added a little scalp massage. Then she went to work with the blow dryer, straightener while using some non heavy oils while I sat there and drank my coffee while chatting with my friends in NYC. It was a great experience overall. She didn't rush me and did an amazing job. Def worth 5 stars.
